We've got our heads in the clouds

We can’t seem to concentrate on the conventional approach. We can’t seem to just design carpet tile the regular way. This time we made it long and narrow instead of square. We blend colors in an ethereal pattern that appears to have no beginning and no end, no repeat. We create possibilities where none had been considered. Nimbus™ mixes all the value and interest of an i2® style with all the possibilities that come in the 25 cm x 1

m skinny plank. And, like our square tiles, planks are easily installed with our glue-free TacTiles installation system.

Planks create a visual texture. A herringbone installation brings stylish scale and movement to the floor. A timeless ashlar installation feels distinctly modern with longer, leaner lines. Add in squares for even more pattern options. The result? A flooring design that’s uniquely yours, suited to your school’s needs.

With so much versatility and pattern potential, rectangles may become your new favorite shape.

Act Natural with Urban Retreat Palettes

Acting naturally comes easy when the lines between the natural and the man-made begin to blur. Here we can explore a new aesthetic that is technologically versatile, environmentally responsible and includes nature as the source and reminder of true inspiration.

Just as nature expertly combines textures, colors and patterns to create a stunning tapestry, we’ve combined the orderly, organic, refined and bold features of Urban Retreat to create three naturally-inspired mash-ups that can soften even the toughest concrete jungles.

Introducing Urban Retreat

There’s a growing global community moving to the cities to live, work, and play because being connected goes beyond the latest technology to real proximity to the people and energy at the center. And with the move, a new aesthetic emerges for an urban future that is technologically versatile, environmentally responsible and includes nature as the source and reminder of true inspiration. Urban Retreat™ is a collection of nine styles sorted into pattern studies that range from refined textures to broad organic forms— all offered in a complimentary color palette.

Urban Retreat is also Interface’s first global product introduction. Many of our products have been available (if not produced) around the world, but this is our first effort to locally manufacture and distribute them.

Urban Retreat One

Urban Retreat One displays a progressive color story which provides elements that can be assembled to explore ideas about color, form and the transitions from one to the other. It has three patterns. There are eight colorways in a complex primary pattern and eight boldly mixed colors in a

transitional pattern. They share four accent tiles that link and separate each pattern at your discretion.

Urban Retreat Two

Urban Retreat Two collects the orderly and the organic in an exquisitely restrained palette. A simple grid and understated cord share space with an eccentric texture like the bark of an ancient tree. Mixing these patterns accentuates the differences in scale, volume and movement, revealing precisely what is special about each. Urban Retreat Two presents three patterns. A shared neutral palette of eight colorways is drawn from the familiar and encourages nuanced studies in texture.

Urban Retreat Three

Urban Retreat Three - a conspiracy of refined textures that are destined to seduce. The most uncommon of the three blankets the floor in shifting shades with the finest fissures, like French limestone that is somehow soft. A shimmering linenlike textile balances the set with a graceful scale. The three patterns in Urban Retreat Three share the same eight hues found in Urban Retreat Two. And both pair quite elegantly with Urban Retreat One.

Spring Refresh — New Products

As the days get a bit longer and the ground gives way to spring, we are celebrating with the introduction of eight new designs – each bringing new life to the floor.

A Peeling™ captures the spring light through a painterly use of color and Exposed™ explores a whole new idea about what an organic pattern can be with all the diversity found in nature and none of the clichés. The subtle pattern of Grasmere™ softly shades the floor like the first confident blades of grass. Strong and reliable, Brickworks & Solidarity™ provide a foundation in this garden and the lively use of color and pattern in Straight Edge™ puts a little spring in our step. The path we’ve laid is fresh and inspired as we introduce Walk the Plank™, a new shape for the floor in 25cm x 1meter lengths. Cambria™ grounds it all with a super-tough construction that will withstand all the elements.
